GPhC is a respected regulatory body that regulates pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and pharmacies in Great Britain. It’s our role to make sure people receive safe and effective pharmacy care and have trust in pharmacy.

We are proud of our diverse and inclusive culture and are committed to holding ourselves to the same standards we expect of others.

We are looking for Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians Members and Lay Members to join our pool of members for both the Fitness to Practise Committee and Investigating Committee.

The role:

We are offering unique and flexible roles within our independent Statutory Committees. You will make a vital contribution to patient safety and public confidence in the pharmacy professions, whilst developing transferable skills and demonstrating the GPhC’s core values.

We encourage applications from those who have never been part of a committee - full training will be provided. Applicants from people with disabilities, people from ethnic minority backgrounds, younger people and those early in their career are particularly welcome to apply, to help us make the committees more representative of the groups they serve.

Remuneration: The role is remunerated, and reasonable expenses will be covered (in line with the GPhC’s Associates and Partners expenses policy).

Location: We are interested in people located anywhere in Great Britain. Many hearings take place remotely, but some are in person at our office based in Canary Wharf.

Applying for this role:

The eligibility criteria differs by the type of applicant.

Lay Members: must have never been registered with the GPhC or any other health or social care regulator.

Registrant Members: must currently be registered with the GPhC and have experience of pharmacy practice.
